A Natural Compound Containing a Disaccharide Structure of Glucose and Rhamnose Identified as Potential N-Glycanase 1 (NGLY1) Inhibitors.

N-glycanase 1 (NGLY1) is an essential enzyme involved in the deglycosylation of misfolded glycoproteins through the endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-associated degradation (ERAD) pathway, which could hydrolyze N-glycan from N-glycoprotein or N-glycopeptide in the cytosol. Recent studies indicated that NGLY1 inhibition is a potential novel drug target for antiviral therapy. In this study, structure-based virtual analysis was applied to screen candidate NGLY1 inhibitors from 2960 natural compounds.

Genomic characterization of serovar Kentucky and London recovered from food and human salmonellosis in Zhejiang Province, China (2016-2021).

Increasing human salmonellosis caused by serovar Kentucky and London has raised serious concerns. To better understand possible health risks, insights were provided into specific genetic traits and antimicrobial resistance of 88 representative isolates from human and food sources in Zhejiang Province, China, during 2016-2021. Phylogenomic analysis revealed consistent clustering of isolates into the respective serovar or sequence types, and identified plausible interhost transmission distinct routes.
